CWSkimmer is a multi-channel CW decoder and analyzer for Windows 98/ME/2000/XP that can use direct I/Q data streams from PowerSDR for wide band decoding. CWSkimmer can be downloaded from the Afreet Software, Inc. web site

Some of CWSkimmer's features are:

A very sensitive CW decoding algorithm based on the methods of Bayesian statistics

Simultaneous decoding of ALL cw signals in the receiver passband - up to 700 signals can be decoded in parallel on a 3-GHz P4 if a wideband receiver is used

A fast waterfall display, with a resolution sufficient for reading Morse Code dots and dashes visually

The callsigns are extracted from the decoded messages, and the traces on the waterfall are labeled with stations' callsigns
